Donald Trump Jr. and Bettina Anderson married in May 2026.

Melissa and Hunter tied the knot in May 2019 after knowing each other for only a few days.

The artist was previously married to Kathleen Buhle, with whom he shares three children. The couple separated in 2017. He also dated his late brother Beau Biden's widow, Hallie Olivere, from 2016 until 2019.

Hunter opened up about his wife after their wedding, telling ABC News at the time: "I instantly fell in love with her. And then I've fallen in love with her more every day."

The pair crossed paths through a mutual friend and even got matching tattoos shortly after meeting.

Donald Trump Jr. and Bettina Anderson's wedding featured colorful fireworks.

Donald Jr., 48, and Bettina's wedding was reportedly funded by Umar Kremlev, a Russian oligarch who has close ties to Vladimir Putin.

According to ProPublica, Umar "footed the bill for hundreds of thousands of dollars of wedding expenses."

He also covered other marital extravaganzas, including a colorful fireworks show. While it's unclear why Umar helped pay for Donald Jr.’s wedding, the men reportedly only met recently.

“Umar is a personal friend of Don,” the businessman's spokesperson told the outlet last month, adding that Umar is “not someone he has a business relationship with” as the pair "met through a mutual friend in the hunting world."
